Fantastic place! Been going to Bar Amoroso since I was a kid in 1998. Best brioche and granita in Vizzini! Friendly staff as well. Can’t wait to visit again!

What a wonderful experience from the food and staff. The food was amazing, we tried the pasta, pizza, steak and even came back for breakfast it was that good. The staff were very patient with us as we could not speak Italian well. Overall, FANTASTICO!!

UK Tourist in Vizzini. This place was recommended to us, and it was great. Firstly, the food, drinks and service were excellent. Especially the Granitas. We were in the outside bit, obviously people smoke in there, and as it's got covers around it, the smoke doesn't go away as quickly. But if you don't like that, go inside. As typical tourists who don't know anything, we ordered lunch food items at breakfast time! And although we waited for a little while, they actually fully accommodated us. We spoke no Italian, and the server spoke no English, but we got by using Google Translate. I was really impressed by how much effort she put into speaking with us. I felt pretty embarrassed about how bad our Italian was. She didn't seem annoyed, though, just tried to be helpful. The food was really very lovely. I had a salad, which was delicious, and some of us had bowls of pasta as fresh as anything you've seen. The prices were incredibly reasonable, too. I would strongly recommend this place in Vizzini, but make sure you have Google Translate, especially as the menus are in Italian. The icing on the cake was they had gluten free sicilian brioche which was lovely.

This is a jem of a pizzeria, worthy of a detour, an attraction of the city of Vizzini. The pizze, of which there is a variety on offer, are of commendable quality, and one of our well versed friend commented that the pizza Tartufo that he ordered on the occasion was his best pizza ever. The crunchiness of the crust is subtle, the content rich, and the composition impressive; pizza Adriana even had a whole piece of burrata magnificently placed at the centre.
